what is the horsepower?
2422
It does not state hp on the label but its a 3 amp motor running 120 volts which calculates to just under 1/2 hp. Internal design factors could lower that but it is impossible to have more than that. Besides, it's a bench grinder, not a 427 cu. in. V8. Horsepower is not a very reliable indicator of performance.

I wanna say it's a 3/4 horse but I didn't keep the box so I don't truly know the horsepower

For your calculations it is generally accepted 1 HP = 745.7 Watts. If you do the math, you are well under 1500 Watts. Now, the only issue is the startup current for your motor since it will take more on startup than on running. According the the chart link attached, this is about 19.5 Amps at running load. Startup amps are more for a brief period. See http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/electrical-motor-hp-amps-d_1455.html

Volts x amps = watts. 745 watts = 1 HP. So 120 x 15 = 1,800 / 745 = 2.4 HP.

Supposedly it improves horsepower. What car are you planning on putting this into? If you do not have any other engine upgrades I doubt that it will make a noticeable difference.

Ours is a 2 hp. Verify the model number off the Jandy website. Hope this helps.

The one I received a couple of weeks ago is the 12.5 hp engine. (-maybe earlier versions were 11.5?? -don't know.)

1/5 HP. It is great a great pump. I use it mostly for home use servicing my cars. But it would work fine for home systems. It is not really built (nor does it cost) for commercial work. Here is a link to the Operators Manual; http://catalog.otctools.com/newcatalog/products/555562_E.pdf

They don't list horsepower with this type of machine. They list PSI, which is 3100. That is a bigger engine than usual. I have several trees around my deck which cause the deck to stain green and brown from the leaves, etc. This washer got it out easily. I'm really quite impressed with it.

There is no way to answer this. The motor is electric and therefor has no CC value. The best ROUGH way to compare this to a gasoline motor would be to measure horse power. 750 Watts = 1 HP roughly, so this has less than 1 HP. To compare, an average 150cc motor has ROUGHLY 13.5 HP. These are all extremely rough numbers, as you can't generalize a range of motors due to possible modifications or design differences.

Im not sure what HP rating, but I can tell you it has great suction. Very happy with mine.

I believe it is 1/4 hp. You can find all the details at the Simer website. This product has worked GREAT for us. Using it for a basement laundry, utility sink, and dehumidifier drain. Pumping about 8' up to main drain, never had any problems so far (had it about 6 months)

Not sure about the HP. I had to replace my power source on a Compac Presario.

I've heard that 2-3 continuous horsepower is needed especially if you're going to be using the treadmill for extended period of time at low (walking speeds). It is actually more taxing on the motor when you are going slowly, unless you are walking at an incline.

On the name plate for HP it says "40 GPM" and no HP designation. I think is about a 3/4 HP though.

1 HP equals 746 watts, so 1.5hp equals 1119 watts. It will work until the batteries are drained, but you can add more batteries to the system. Ultimately, you have to figure out your system requirements and provide enough panels and batteries to meet your demand.

It's rated at 14 amps, so 14A x 120V = 1,680 Watts and at 0.00134 horsepower/Watt it should be about 2.25 horsepower. However, electric motors are typically around 80% efficient, so best guess would be about 1.8 horsepower.

here is the link to the Honda engines website. it indicates that the HP of the GX390 engine is 11.7 horsepower. this is a very powerful pressure washer. http://engines.honda.com/models/model-detail/gx390
